2 week update
First up: Darby - weight is down (way down - like to below pregnancy levels). BP is still up (way up - on meds for it, not seeming to do anything yet).
Second: Lili - weight is up (way up - ok, I'll stop). She's at 10lb, 3oz. Length is up to 21", head is 15". That puts her in the >99%, 93%, and 97% ranges, respectively. The Dr. did say that breastfed babies will climb up quicker than bottle-fed babies, but then they'll plateau and slow down on the growth, while bottle-fed (and more so formula) will add it on later.
Got anything else to add?

Cord away!
So Lilis cord stump fell off just a bit ago. Now on with the rest of the healing!
She is doing well and sleeps a lot still. Cora has mellowed a touch in the last couple of days. Managed to not wake until 7am this morning. That was a relief! If she kept doing the 5am thing.... Ack.
I am pooped...fell asleep on the couch yesterday and woke to Cora yelling 'mommy!" at me over and over. The medication doesn't seem to be lowering the pressure at all and I am still getting nasty headaches. Not sure what they will do if this stuff doesn't work. I am hoping it won't be much. But that stuff is making me dizzy more often than I would like and I am stinken sleepy, usually for most of the day. I am glad that Cora is getting better at playing on her own and that I have projects I can have her do when I need time for Lili. Since Lili sleeps so much I have time to interact with Cora quite a bit.
All I have for now. Lilis next appt is tomorrow. We will have her info and I want to stand on a scale. Bits of me are missing.... :)
